Exegesis
The narrative shifts to covenant invocation in yiqra bishmi {יִקְרָא בִשְׁמִי | yiq-rāʾ biš-mî} ‘he will call on My name’ and wa-ani eneh oto {וַֽאֲנִי אֶעֱנֶה אֹת֔וֹ | wa-ʾă-nî ʾe-ʿe-neh ʾō-ṯō} ‘and I will answer him.’
In context — Zechariah 13:9
I will bring the third part through the fire and refine them as silver is refined, and I will test them as gold is tested. He will call on My name, and I will answer him; I will say, “He is my people,” and he will say, “The LORD is my God .”
